Aggreko, the provider of temporary power generators has completed a major sporting hat-trick by sealing a contract for the Asian Games.

After the providing power for the Olympics and the football World Cup, the new contract means the Glasgow-based firm has now won contracts for the world’s top three sporting events.

The latest contract is worth $30 million and will see Aggreko provide around 65 MW of power for the 2010 Asian Games and Asian Para Games being staged in Guangzhou, China starting in late November.

Rupert Soames, chief executive, said: "The Asian Games, along with the Olympic Games and football World Cup, are the world's largest sporting events and I am delighted to say that Aggreko has scored a 'hat-trick' by being selected to supply power to all of them.

“This success is the result of the talented team of events professionals we have brought together in Aggreko and the tens of millions of pounds we have invested to serve these large events."

The firm employs over 4,000 people operating from more than 130 locations around the world. It designs and manufactures power equipment specifically for major events at its factory in Dumbarton.
